The tank is suppose to have a baffle, I never checked. Most are two seperate tanks welded atop each other, but the one is not.

I also cut the holes for my tail lights and reverse lights



That tiny lamp qualifies as a DOT approved reverse light?

I have the same license plate lamp on my Jeep.

Got to remember it is a 1943 Jeep MB

When did blinkers and reverse lights start to be required?

My wiring harness showed up today. I got an EZ Wiring 12 circuit mini fuse harness. I used an EZ Wiring 12 circuit ATO fuse harness in my M715 and liked it a lot.
